What'the need?

    by: bejjinks Author IconMail Icon
A little history: Humans have been travelling to other stars for centuries. They have not found any sentient natives yet but they have found suitable planets for colonization. Some do have indigenous life forms but the alien life is small like plants and insects. No alien vertebrates have been discovered yet.

Humans have colonized these planets and the colonists adapted to the planets they colonized. That is, if the planet had low gravity, the colonists became taller and lankier. They developed their own cultures and became like natives. Then came the revolts as each colony declared its independence from whatever Earth government had planted it. It became expected that all new colonies would declare independence but different governments had different strategies for handling that. Some cracked down harder refusing to let go of their colonies while others made arrangements from the get go to allow the colonies independence.

Earth never did develop a single world government although they did manage to unite into twelve governments as opposed to nearly two hundred. But factions didn't want to give up power. Instead, they each wanted their own one world government until their were twelve competing "United Nations" like governments. There was the European Union, the North American Hegemony (Canada won the war and then went power crazy), the Latin American Union, the North African Union, the South African Union, the Muslim Brotherhood, the Pacific Union (with a capital in New Zealand which had become a world power), the Oriental Union, the Indostanic Union, the Russian Hegemony, the Anti-union rebellion, and Australia.

With each colony on a planet other than Earth declaring indepence, the number of governments rose back to nearly two hundred again but space prevented interstellar war. The people of each new planet claimed their planet as their national identity regardless of their DNA. That is, if a group of Caucasians, Africans and Asians settled on the planet Eridani, they abandoned the words Caucasian, African and Asian. Instead, they identified themselves as Eridanians.

What culture developed on each planet depended primarily on two main factors: the parental government from which the colony broke free from and the conditions of the planet itself. For example: A colony set out from the North American Hegemony to colonise the planet Scauda which is a cold planet. Both the North American, Mormon/Victorian hypermorality and the freezing cold temperatures of Scauda cause the culture to never expose the slightest bit of skin.
